Bristol Pedigreed Seeds 
There is a certain fascination to many gardening enthusiasts 
in growing plants right from the seed stage—particularly so with 
Chrvsanthemums because they are so variable. No one can say 
what a packet of seed will bring forth. It is a ‘ Horticultural 
Grab-bag” from which something more gorgeous than any named 
sort may appear. In any case, a varied assortment a wealth of 
cut-flower material—and a lovely range of color will be assured. 
Our “Pedigreed Seed,” offered last year for the first time, has 
brought us many enthusiastic reports. The addition of new 
parents this year will provide a still greater variety. 
Selected from carefully chosen parents, our seed should not be 
confused with seed taken indiscriminately from field plants. 
Seed sown from February until March—depending on the 
latitude—will bloom profusely the first year, and, with good 
culture, can be grown anywhere that Chrysanthemums can be 
flowered successfully. 
SINGLE KOREAN HYBRIDS. Single flowers in the finest colors. 
60 seeds for 50 cts., 150 seeds for $1. 
DOUBLE KOREAN HYBRIDS. These will vary in type, pro¬ 
ducing single, semi-double, and a proportion of full double 
sorts—all very beautiful. 50 seeds for 50 cts., 125 seeds for $1.
